Tie Breaker #1 - Final round score of the winner.

Par 70

The yardage will vary as they will shorten/lengthen 2 holes to make them par 4/5 each day. Crazy setup.

I'm surprised by all the low 270s predictions. I predicted even Par but wouldn't doubt the winner to be over Par.

there's only one tree on the course. I loathe US Open setups, but while it might be ugly, it's not going to be Oakmont or Winged Foot. I think a couple of guys go at least 2 or 3 under each day. Will someone shoot 2 or 3 under each day? Guess we'll see.

Four Par 4s over 500 yards, lightning fast greens, and a lot of fluctuating tee boxes from day-to-day. That's a recipe for high scores IMO. Plus, it's a course that no one is too familiar with.

That's why caddies make so much money. When you're laser sharp with a 5 iron from 225, 500 yard par 4s aren't that big a deal. We'll see Sunday.
